Club Scrap Orchard Blog Hop

Hello! Welcome to the Club Scrap Orchard Blog Hop! If you've just come from Tricia's blog then you're hopping along just fine. Wow fall in Upstate NY this year has been amazing! It's 87 degrees today and has been for like a week!! With temperatures like this it's been hard to get into the typical Autumn spirit, BUT the Club Scrap September collection Orchard will help for sure! Fall colors, apples and pumpkins! Yay Fall! :)

I was looking through all my stuff the other day and came across a huge wooden clothespin I got at a craft store a couple of years ago. I always thought it would make a great recipe card holder. So that's what I did! I decorated the clothespin and made a recipe book to go with it.

The finished recipe book measures 5 1/2" x 6".

There are 12 folders that hold recipe cards.

The book has an accordion folded spine.

Inspired by this month's kit I included only recipes made with apples, pumpkin and cherries.

For the recipe folders cut 12 pieces of card stock 4 1/2" x 6 3/4". Score at 1/2" and 3 5/8". Put tape on the edges as shown and fold over into tube open on one edge. 3"x 5" recipe cards fit perfectly!

Adhere each of the folders onto the accordion folds of the book. I adhered 2 to each accordion-one on one side and then one to the other side-staggered so they are next to each other.
